I got tagged by Victoria over at Addlepates and Book Nerds to do this tag. It’s time for the unpopular opinions to be unleashed.

1. A popular book or series that you didn’t like

Easy. Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard. That book was just so bad.

2. A popular book that everyone hates but you love

Ok, honestly, The Host by Stephanie Meyer is pretty good. I feel like it gets judged too much because its written by the Twilight author but it’s definitely much better.

3. A love triangle where your ship didn’t sail

This almost never happens to me because I 1. avoid most love triangle books and 2. Usually go for the obvious one. So most of my ships sail 🙂 I spent a good 15 minutes thinking about an answer to this one but I’ve got nothing.

4. A popular genre that you hardly reach for

Stealing one from Victoria and saying horror. I have no idea why people read it for fun. I could stab myself with a spork and it’s basically the same thing as me reading horror.

5. A beloved character you didn’t like

Dimitri from Vampire Academy was just no for me. One he has a ponytail, two he wears a duster in hot weather and three, who would ever choose him over Adrian.

6. A popular author you can’t get into

Time for the real unpopular opinions to come up. I’m going to have to say Sarah J. Maas. It’s not that I hate her writing but more that I can’t get into it easily. I’ll still try and pick up Heir of Fire soon… (maybe)

7. A popular book series you have no interest in reading

The Shatter Me series by Tahereh Mafi. This is more of a case of a series I’m probably not going to continue because the first book was nothing special for me.

8. An adaption you liked better than the book

I’m going to say The Duff purely because Mae Whitman did such an amazing job acting out Bianca and made me laugh so much. Also Robbie Amell’s pecs. The end.

I’ve been searching for I Am Her Revenge by Meredith Moore for a while now before I realised it comes out in August in Australia. Just a perk of living in not USA. Just wait till I get my hands on it…

Other than that, I’ve been on Tumblr a lot recently and haven’t read much else. I’m hunting for some more good contemporary reads to get me back into a good reading habit. Well, here’s to what will hopefully be a productive month of reading!

So, how have you guys been? I know, it’s been 2 weeks since I last posted but I was really busy with school. Math is hard 😦

Anyways, I have started reading some other books though. Right now, I’ve started In the Afterlight by Alexandra Bracken and Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard which I’m LOVING. Seriously, it’s got this amazing feel to it but I do have my reservations about it. I mean, it was described as a The Selection and Graceling hybrid and I have long standing rivalry with one of those series coughTheSelectionSuckscough… Will have to discuss this in the review…

I also got onto Goodreads and realised EVERY SINGLE BOOK COVER CAME OUT! What we have to discuss is the Paper Gods series. The third book, Storm, finally has a cover and it looks like this:

I mean, I don’t hate it but I do hate how it’s not gonna match the other two on my shelf! So these are the first two:

There’s no possible way they will match so my OCD book nerd is just raging.

On a different note, I’m super excited for The Fill In Boyfriend by Kasie West. It sounds so adorable and come on, Kasie West writes the most fangirl worthy books. You’ve got to love them.

So, my question for you guys is what book are you most excited for in the next few months? What books are you reading right now? What books do you recommend? So many questions to ask 😀
